The correct Answer is:
To answer the question "Nucleosome model proposed by," we need to analyze the options provided and identify the correct one based on historical scientific contributions. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Question**: The question asks who proposed the nucleosome model, which is a fundamental concept in the structure of eukaryotic chromosomes. 2. **Review the Options**: The options given are: - A. Dupro - B. Conberg and Thomas - C. Stephensons - D. Weldair and Taylor 3. **Analyze Each Option**: - **Weldair and Taylor**: Weldair is known for contributions to the neuron theory and chromosome naming, while Taylor is recognized for the semi-conservative model of DNA replication. Neither is associated with the nucleosome model. - **Dupro**: He proposed the folded fiber model of chromatin but did not propose the nucleosome model. - **Conberg and Thomas**: They are credited with the observation and proposal of the nucleosome model. Specifically, Roger Conberg played a significant role in defining the structure and existence of nucleosomes. 4. **Conclusion**: Based on the analysis, the correct answer is **B. Conberg and Thomas**. They proposed the nucleosome model, which describes how DNA is packaged in eukaryotic cells. ### Final Answer: The nucleosome model was proposed by **Conberg and Thomas**. ---
